Will a copy of damn small linux burned to a dvd boot up a computer with no operating system currently installed if I boot from the cd?

    Should do, given that DSL is an operating system itself.

    Yes. This is how people who've fucked themselves out of remembering the Win XP administrator password (myself included, one time) can get to their files when otherwise locked out of their system.

    Does anyone here know how to get a usb mouse to work with damn small linux? I can get the OS to boot up but I cant manage to get the mouse to work once inside.
